Thanks Justin for your kind words. Yes, this was in fact an area where there had been fighting, during the Boer wars.

Katherine thanks, yes it was in the winter.

Lovely colors, reminiscent of some classic '70s American westerns - the cerulean blues against the earthen yellows and tans - and the fence really enhances that wide open vastness beyond. Also interesting how the dark patches on the faded valley floor beyond seem almost like infantry lines and battle squares in some epic clash about to begin in the late 18th century.

Great view through the fence - I love the hazy landscape in the distance and the blue sky! It must have been the middle of winter there.

Bill, thanks...yes there is an absence of trees, but surprisinly the area is full of man-made forests.I too love my trees!

Easy photo to use the rule of thirds! I would miss trees if I lived there. Nice shot, Jill
